View of Hasper Talsperre

Highlight • Viewpoint

Because the circular route goes about 20 to 30 meters above the Hasper dam, there are great views of the reservoir from many places! This highlight is, so to speak, an example of this. ;)

Fitness check after Corona. 💪 I thought to start slowly. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.👍 That gives me hope that I can get back to my old form. 😀Let's go, the biggest difficulty is getting rid of the inner bastard sitting on my lap.🤣🫠

Started from the Bilstein hiking car park.
Unfortunately, it went directly along the country road for a while, but I couldn't find a better parking lot in my quick planning.
Otherwise the paths were very good to walk.
Since we were traveling in autumn, we could see mushrooms everywhere in the forest.

The starting point was the parking lot at the Plessen restaurant.
The path is actually not difficult to walk.
But on today's lap there were some icy spots due to freezing wet conditions.
The lightly powdered landscape was wonderful and invited people to take photos of the dam full to the …
